* The reign of the Catholic Monarchs marks the end of the Middle Ages and the beginning of the Early Modern Age in Spain * Fernando and Isabel were intolerant towards other religions. As a result, they established the Inquisition in 1478. * In 1492 Fernando and Isabel also expelled Jewish people from their kingdoms. The Jewish people had to either convert to Catholicism or leave. * During the Early Modern Age, many European explorers made voyages to distant places. They discovered and conquered new lands and peoples. For this reason, this period is called the Age of Discovery. The conquistadors were Spanish explorers who conquered lands that became part of the Spanish Empire.
* In the 16th and 17th centuries, Spain was ruled by the Hapsburg dynasty. Carlos I and Felipe II were the most important Hapsburg kings. During their reigns, Spain became an enormous international empire * In the 17th century, the Hapsburg kings were Felipe III, Felipe IV and Carlos II. They are known as the Lesser Hapsburgs because they were less powerful and less successful than Carlos I and Felipe II. * During the period of the Catholic Monarchs and the Hapsburg dynasty, new artistic styles appeared in Europe: the Renaissance and the Baroque style. * In the 16th and 17th centuries, there were many great artists and writers in Spain, so this period is known as the Golden Age * In the 18th century Spain was ruled by the Bourbon dynasty. Felipe V and Carlos III were the most important Bourbon kings. * Felipe V ruled with absolute power in the first half of the 18th century. He centralised the government. This means that he eliminated many local laws and institutions. They were replaced by new laws and institutions for the whole kingdom. Felipe V also divided Spain into provinces. * Carlos III ruled Spain in the second half of the 18th century. He made many changes to improve the country and the lives of the Spanish people. He introduced projects to modernise the country. For example, he improved the road system and the cities, and built canals. * The Enlightenment was a new way of thinking that became popular in Europe in the 18th century. Enlightenment thinkers believed that learning was very important. They thought people’s beliefs should be based on logic and not on superstition.
